Commando Heritage No.1 Tartan
The Commando Heritage No.1 Tartan was designed in-house by your team to reflect the history and traditions of the Commandos. It is registered at the Scottish Register of Tartans and is owned solely by the charity - International Commando Heritage Trust. The tartan was produced by Scotland's premier weavers at Lochcarron's Waverley Mill in Selkirk.

Section Title
Introducing the ‘Commando Heritage No.1’ Tartan
Although several military units have adopted their own, no recognised tartan existed to bring together the origins and camaraderie of the Commandos.
The Commando Heritage No.1 tartan draws upon those origins, traditions and legacies that combine to create and perpetuate the heritage of this warrior class, reflecting the history of Combined Operations.
This tartan is registered to the International Commando Heritage Trust. It may be worn by any serving or former member of a military unit that has completed UK or Allied Nations Commando training and whose unit can trace its antecedents to WW2 training in Scotland and the Commando Basic Training Centre at Achnacarry. It may also be worn/carried by close family members of those who would qualify as above. Supporters of the organisation may also be granted permission to wear this tartan with approval and written permission from the Secretary.
